What's this 'Soccer' Game
AUSTRALIA are world champions once again, defending their hockey World Cup title with a 6-1 demolition of the Netherlands.
The win, which five-time world-player-of-the-year Jamie Dwyer described as better than their 2010 title, capped off a superb tournament in which Australia had utterly outclassed every opponent they encountered.
“For me this is better (than 2010). To win a World Cup 6-1 is incredible. It’s unheard of,” Dwyer told AAP.

Ah, it was field hockey -- I was wondering why a hockey team would be dressed like that

Don't mean to be prejudiced! But here in the U.S., field hockey has a bit of a different image in the public mind:

THE number of countries that have ice hockey ranked as a major team sport (#1 among the team sports, by participation rates, in Canada and Russia, and #4 in the USA..) can be easily counted without having to take your shoes off...
